Review
Literate, sybaritic, ecumenical. Uplifting to body and spirit. The Whole World Loves Chicken Soup, Mimi Sheraton's timeless study on what some consider the elixir of life, is all of these. This comprehensive treatise on what is arguably one of the world's ubiquitous dishes includes what kind of chicken and pot to use to be sure your soup will be golden rich and lean. Along with over 100 recipes for chicken-based soups and a full panoply of dumplings, meat balls, noodles, and piroshiki to go with them, this book is also studded with historical, geographic, and cultural tidbits. If you wonder how much can be done with a bird simmered in liquid, the chapters on soups from Latin America, the Middle East, Sub-Saharan Africa, and Asia are edifying. Sheraton's passion, warmth, generosity and meticulous attention to accuracy make this book a culinary classic.
From Booklist
Jewish yentas may be famous for their chicken soup, but they aren't the only ones who know how to cook up a savory broth. So says veteran cookbook author Sheraton, who looks to her Jewish roots as well as to places as far flung as Italy, Scotland, Nigeria, and Aruba for some of the recipes in this very special volume. After a lesson in "basic soupmanship" that even experienced cooks will appreciate, Sheraton jumps to her home court, providing soup versions from Jewish traditions, complete with recipes for kreplach and matzo balls. Then it's on to everywhere else for intriguing chicken-based soups (and accompaniments), ranging from chicken and eggplant and moldavian sour soup to baked chicken custard and Aztec tortilla soup. With a text as lively as the recipes, this will be great for well-used cookery collections. Stephanie Zvirin
